1/8/2014There are not enough words to share to express how happy I am that my father is a patient at Beverly Hills Thermal Medicine! My father George Herman developed a very rare and resistant form of melanoma cancer in the eye. His tumor grew aggressively through 3 rounds of chemo and an entire round of radiation.
One of the doctors said to me during the process, "We're hopeful, but not encouraging. I can see how much you love your dad. I suggest you tell him and spend as much time with him as you can. He probably has between 6 months and maybe 3 years on the outside."
I was crushed to hear this.
At the time, my dad was gaunt, pale, weak, lost a lot of weight, and looked very sick. He was always cold, even when it was 90 degrees.

The tumor grew and grew. Ultimately, it looked like a baseball growing out of his face. I hated that tumor. It represented everything about Western Medicine I always despised. But then cam along Drs. Cyrus and O'Day who changed my father's treatment and said it could take 6 months to a year for the tumor to respond to the treatment.
Well. 3 1/2 months later, the tumor I had been visualizing in meditation to disappear shrunk day by day and in only 3 weeks, disappeared!
The eye has been declared "Cancer-Free!"
My dad's vitality is back and his energy and color is back to normal.
Yes, he's still blind, but he's here and I thank and bless Drs. O'Day and Syrus every day.
the staff at Beverly Hills Cancer Ctr is also top notch and as a team they all work very hard to make their patients healthy.

My father went to Beverly Hills Thermal Medicine for a tumor on his eye. It was big and ugly. After several treatments with Dr. Cyrus, his tumor has gone away. Please, if you know someone suffering from a tumor, I recommend Beverly Hills Thermal Medicine, using Breakthrough advancements in cancer treatments.

About Beverly Hills Thermal Medicine:
http://bhthermalmedicine.com/contact/take-a-virtual-tour
Beverly Hills Thermal Medicine is an advanced comprehensive cancer treatment center specializing in hyperthermia treatment. Hyperthermia (also known as “thermal therapy”) is a means of using heat to treat cancer. It is used primarily with radiation therapy. Our physicians also pair it with chemotherapy and sometimes a combination of chemotherapy and radiation. The heat is administered by a hyperthermia machine, which uses ultrasound (sound waves), microwaves or another form of energy to create heat within the tumor.
Heat generated by hyperthermia helps to sensitize cancer cells to radiation therapy, thereby making your radiation treatments significantly more effective than if given alone. The two therapies work together to fight the growing cancer cells. Heat also prevents the cancer cells from repairing the cancer-damaging effects of radiation.
